Cambodia is a country still coming to terms with the genocide committed by Pol Pot’s Khmer Rouge during the 1970s, but when it comes to education, a concerted effort is being made to improve the system and engender reform.

A World Bank administered program, the Cambodia-Education for All Fast Track Initiative, has seen more than 1,200 classrooms built, 11,000 teachers trained, and 900 ‘early childhood education programs’ established.
